CTIA may be starting tomorrow, but the news are already here! One interesting new piece is that the budget-centric solution in HTC's new One line, the One V, is going to arrive at U.S. soil this summer. Hooray!

Unfortunately, it isn't disclosed which carriers are going to welcome the One V in their line-ups, but we're being told that the device will become available through "a variety of partners". The HTC One V is a contemporary smartphone with great build quality and fine specs that won't break the bank.

Among the more interesting features of this handset is its 5MP camera, which has the company's new ImageSense technology, allowing for ultra-fast picture capture rates. Being an HTC device, the One V is also equipped with Beats Audio, which may not be authentic, as the manufacturer is wanting us to believe, but does make modern tracks sound cool.

Otherwise, the smartphone features a 3.7" screen with WVGA resolution (252 ppi) and a 1GHz single-core processor by Qualcomm. You can read our review of the global version of the One V for all the details surrounding the phone.

New Orleans – May 8, 2012 –HTC,
a global designer of smartphones, today announced the global version of
the HTC One™ V, part of its highly anticipated HTC One series of
smartphones, will be displayed for the first time in the U.S. during the
International CTIA Wireless 2012. The HTC One V is expected to be
available through a variety of U.S. partners later this summer.

The HTC One series represents HTC’s most premium mobile experience with a
new level of premium design, amazing camera and authentic sound
experience. With the HTC One V, HTC integrates Android™ 4.0 (ICS) with
HTC Sense™ 4, the new version of HTC’s branded user experience with HTC
ImageSense™, a new suite of camera and imaging features that set HTC One
apart from other phones. HTC Sense 4 also includes broad enhancements
to audio quality and simplifies how people listen to music on their
phone.

Amazing Camera

With
HTC ImageSense, the HTC One V offers an amazing camera that delivers
fast image capture, better image quality under adverse conditions, and
an easy-to-use display with side-by-side photo and video capture
buttons. The camera can be quickly activated from the home screen and
the superfast autofocus enables continuous shooting to ensure you don’t
miss those special moments.

The
5-megapixel camera with f/2.0 back illuminated sensor, means that more
light is allowed into the sensor to capture quality photos in adverse
conditions, such as low light, no light or bright backlighting. With HTC
Video Pic™, the smartphone is also capable of capturing still photos
while simultaneously recording HD video, and in addition, can capture
still images during video playback.

HTC Sense 4 also integrates Dropbox,
enabling customers to get 25 gigabytes of free Dropbox space for two
years - enough to keep more than 10,000 high-quality photos - and makes
it easy to edit, save and share photos, videos, documents and other
kinds of files. HTC One V also gives an easy way to share photos and
videos with family and friends through Media Link HD* which wirelessly
sends content from the smartphone to any TV with an HDMI input.

Authentic Sound

HTC One V also provides authentic sound with Beats Audio™
that allows listeners to experience music as the artist intended,
creating rich, premium sound experiences whether listening to music,
watching a movie, or playing a game.
HTC Sync Manager software makes it easy to transfer songs, artists and
playlists from a music library on a computer to the smartphone. The new
HTC Car Stereo Clip* also allows customers to easily bring their mobile
music to their car’s sound system.

Premium DesignUtilizing
the classic, award-winning design of the HTC Legend, the HTC One V
brings iconic design to a smartphone with broad appeal and a premium
experience. The timeless, simple aluminum unibody architecture
and slightly curved chin allow the HTC One V to fit smoothly in the palm
of your hand. The 3.7-inch screen is a delight to the eyes, made out of
reinforced glass and is scratch resistant. The HTC One V features a speedy Qualcomm™ Snapdragon S3 1 GHz processor, and is supported by a 1,500 mAh battery.

HTC One V will be available in the United States from a variety of
partners in the summer of 2012. More information on the HTC One series
